Fans haven't been happy about the move.

Keith Urban performs during Concert for Carolina on Saturday, Oct. 26, 2024, at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C.Keith Urban is one of the biggest stars in country music, but the singer recently made a move that left quite a few of his fans fuming.Well, Urban has cut ties with the band leader — Jerry Flowers — who has been touring with him for the past 25 years. That’s just about the entirety of Urban’s career, and Flowers’ impact was not lost on the folks who attended Urban’s shows.

“It’s with a heavy but full heart that after 25 years on stage with Keith Urban, Keith has decided to make a lineup change and I will no longer be in the band,”“I have an always will have the utmost respect and love for Keith and I treasure the amazing years we had together. I want to thank all the fans that have showed me so much love for so many years and I hope I was a small part of bringing you joy and happiness thru our shows.

Urban has yet to comment on the moves, but it does seem like, at least publicly, neither member of the band burned bridges on the way out so maybe they will return to the road with Urban again someday.5 deaths that have rocked country music in 2025If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
